Description Paul 2014-08-21 08:02:21 UTC
The preposition 'My' should dropped from the wording used in digikam's user interface.

Rather than, for example, 'My Albums', 'My Tags', etc. It would be more professional to use simply 'Albums', 'Tags', etc.

Personally I find the use of the preposition 'My' in this context to have rather childish connotations; apart from which the referenced item may not actually be mine :)

Comment 9 Paul 2014-08-21 14:13:25 UTC
Thanks to all who supported this, and especially to Gilles for implementing the change.
Comment 10 Mohamed 2014-08-21 14:45:51 UTC
Yes, I prefer removing it too
Comment 11 Kjetil Kilhavn 2014-08-22 06:34:37 UTC
Good idea. To separate my albums from shared albums etc it is sufficient (and better) to label everything that is not mine.
